actually think time on the range and using those skill sets in the controlled and safe environment could be a huge benefit to veterans. >> reporter: last year kyle wrote the book american sniper that became a new york times bestseller. the book catapulted him to fame and many veterans sought out his help. kyle leaves behind a wife and two children. authorities are holding routh on a $3 million bond. breaking news for you, but it's good news out at bwi airport. that, my friends, is the baltimore ravens deplaning as it were back from new orleans and their big win over the san francisco 49ers last night in the longest super bowl ever because of the little power issue about halfway through, ravens very excited, though looking a little tired coming down the stairs. you can hardly blame them, everybody very excited. there's going to be a big parade and celebration in baltimore tomorrow morning 10:45. we'll stream is live on

www.wusa9.com and at 7:30 we'll have a special news report called game on purple rain. we'll bring you the latest on the big win and all the excitement around these baltimore ravens second super bowl in the 21st century for them. >> good stuff. that's good news. >> very exciting, enjoyed that game last night. >> that was a heck of a game. i hear you have some video out of chicago. is this snowy video perhaps? >> it is but not very much. they had officially 1.7 inches yesterday, the same system that's racing to our north. they've only had 5.5 inches since december 1st. average is about 21 inches. the midwest, great lakes and really the rockies and mid- atlantic and northeast all kind of snow starved right now, just barely enough to use the snowblower and you know he's dying to do that. we are looking at a live shot, our live michael and son weather cam. we have sunshine, really pretty nice evening, temperatures cold but not super cold, 36, above freezing. the winds are light south,

southwest at 7, pressure falling as the clipper approaches. temperatures 35 in rockville, 33 bethesda, 34 reston and fairfax not bad, 35 in springfield, college park and 34 toward waldorf. here's our clipper and it looks pretty impressive now. what happens, though, all this will fall on the west side of the divide on the mountains, so great news for the ski resorts from snowshoe up to timberline up to wisp. after that not a lot of snow shower activity makes it over into the immediate metro area. again i think the best chance will be north of town frederick and north gaithersburg north and certainly you'll see a little accumulation west of hagerstown. other than that a couple showers passing to our south through st. mary's city and st. mary's county but not causing too many problems. so another clipper tonight, snow showers possible mainly north, a dusting maybe north and west of town. evening commute looks fine, no

worries at all. tonight 28 to 32, cold, flurries or snow shower mainly north, low temperatures upper 20s to low 30s, winds southwest at 10. by morning we still run the risk of a couple snow showers, 20s and 30s, light wind, don't think it will be a problem for the morning commute and by afternoon pretty nice day actually, highs near 45 becoming partly cloudy with light wind. that will feel pretty nice. the next three days our 9 weather alerts are green. so tuesday maybe a morning snow shower, clouds coming back tuesday night, pleasant on wednesday in the upper 40s and thursday we're almost near 50. the next seven days look like this. look how warm it's going to get. temperatures will flirt with 50 on friday, saturday pretty good, a little cooler but still nice and sunday we're flirting with 50 and next week, well, low 50s but raining. we haven't had any snow more much rain. we'll take anything we can get.

we need the rain, high temps low 50s. >> nice timing for the weekend, good job. coming up, folks, just how many kisses did it take to get the perfect match? we'll hear from the geeky co- star of this godaddy super bowl ad a lot of folks were disturbed by. >> but up next fresh off her super bowl halftime performance beyonce announces she's coming back here. >> yea! hmm, it says here that cheerios helps lower cholesterol

we've got an update now on breaking news from that nearly week long hostage drama that wrapped up in alabama just a short time ago. authorities gave a brief statement saying the fbi stormed that underground bunker believing the 5-year-old boy being held hostage was in imminent danger. the boy was rescued and the alleged kidnapper jimmy lee dykes is now dead. dykes snatched that the boy last tuesday after he stormed a school bus and killed the driver. he had been holding ethan in an underground bunker on his alabama property ever since. they were communicating with him through a tube. this standoff is now over. right now safety investigators are trying to find the cause of a deadly tour bus crash in southern california. at least eight people were killed and another 40 others injured. this happened on a narrow mountain road last night and investigators say the bus was full of mexican tourists.

topping tonight's health alert, new research that shows the threat of bullying does seem to lessen as gay or bisexual adolescents get older. overall these kids are more often the target of bullying than their straight counterparts, but this report in the journal of pediatrics indicates things get better for a lot of them with age. for example, 57% of lesbian or bisexual girls report bullying at age 13 or 14 that. drops to 6% by age 20 or 21. among the boys bullying dropped from 52% to 9% over the same time frame, so good news there. hopefully we can eradicate it altogether. also how medicine is going ultra hi-tech helping doctors be in more than one place at 1 time. we're talking robots making hospital rounds for them.
